[QUOTE="RSteve, post: 566113, member: 164"] [SIZE=5]It arrived this afternoon. I thought it would be cheaply made, somewhat tinny. I was wrong. It appears to be stainless steel, as described. Just for shitz and grinz, I progressively filled and compressed the tube to about 3/4" of the top. The noodle attachment in the lower right corner appeared to be the sturdiest, so that's the one I attached. I cut a cardboard disc to fit inside the noodle template. As I progressively filled and compressed, the tobacco density got harder and harder. I wrapped the press, filled with compressed tobacco in plastic wrap and put it away for a while, maybe a month.

I decided to see if the tobacco press could use another turn. It did. I was curious and removed the top. The piece of the press that comes in direct contact with the tobacco, had tobacco sticking to it. Lesson learned.
